Living in Bridgeport, CT

Bridgeport was originally part of the township of Stratford, with its first recorded settlements beginning in 1659. However, Bridgeport did not become a city in its own right until 1836. The city quickly became known for its shipbuilding and whaling industries throughout the 19th century. Due to its ideal geographic location along the Long Island Sound, Bridgeport has always attracted both visitors and residents for centuries. Today, the city has morphed into Connecticut's largest and most well-known hub for dining, entertainment, culture and business. According to information from the 2010 U.S. Census Bureau, the city is home to more than 144,000 residents, and that number is expected to grow as more people in the New England area discover what this charming city has to offer.

Bridgeport Attractions and Special Events

This town is perhaps best known for its commitment to promoting arts in the community, so it should come as no surprise that the area's biggest annual event is the Bridgeport Arts Fest held during the summer. Each year, a celebration in Bridgeport is held that features original artwork and crafts, live entertainment and demonstrations and food and drinks.
